• Parts Needed to Attach a Roadmaster Tow Dolly to a Thor Freedom Elite 24FE
  When using the The Roadmaster Tow Dolly part # RM-2050-1 to tow your 2018 Fiat 500X behind your Thor Freedom Elite 24FE, the tow dolly will do the signaling, not the vehicle. Therefore you need a 7-way trailer connector for both the tow dolly and motorhome unless you already have them. For the motorhome, I recommend using the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C59236 with the Universal Installation Kit part # ETBC7. Since your motorhome is larger than...

• Does Battery of 2022 Buick Encore GX Need to Be Disconnected in Order To Flat Tow It
  If your 2022 Buick Encore GX is a FWD vehicle, it cannot be flat towed and you would need to use a tow dolly like part # RM-2050-1. If your Encore is an AWD model that's not a Sport Touring model, it can be flat towed as long as you don't exceed 70 mph. Per the owner's manual, the negative battery terminal does indeed need to be disconnected in order to tow the vehicle. This prevents the battery from being drained. The Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect system, part # RM-766 would...

• Parts Needed to Convert Roadmaster Tow Dolly From Electric Brakes to Surge Brakes
  The electric brakes on the Roadmaster Tow Dolly # RM-2050-1 can be converted to surge brakes if you'd like. You'll need the brake assemblies, actuator, and brake lines. For the brakes I suggest # AKUBRK-35. This includes both the left and right hand side which are specific. The brakes are labeled so you know which is which. Our most popular brake actuator is the Demco # DM72VR. This fits a 2 inch hitch ball and has a capacity of 6,000 pounds. For a brake line kit I would go with...

• Flat Towing 2015 Mini Cooper Behind Motorhome
  We do have all of the parts you'll need to flat tow your 2015 Mini Cooper behind your RV as long as it's a manual transmission vehicle. If it's an automatic you'd have to use a tow dolly like the Roadmaster part # RM-2050-1 since the vehicle can't be towed with all 4 wheels on the ground. The dolly can be used on either vehicle configuration though and does have a bit easier of an install since it's one thing to assemble and not several things that need to be installed on the vehicle.

• Recommended Safety Chains for Dolly Towing a 2016 Jeep Latitude
  Your 2016 Jeep Latitude will have a curb weight between 3,655 lbs and 4,046 lbs according to my research. I recommend getting two of the Titan 30" Long Safety Chain with 1/4" S-Hook with Latch - 5,000 lbs # TCTSCG30-730-04X1. Then you will use grade 5 hardware to attach the link to your tow dolly. If you don't yet have a tow dolly, I recommend using the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes - 4,250 lbs # RM-2050-1 if you have a brake controller on your tow vehicle. This dolly comes...

  The hardware needed to attach the Replacement Stabilizer Bar part # RM-B001225 to the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes part # RM-2050-1 is not included nor is this something that Roadmaster offers separately.

• Most Inexpensive Way to Tow 2015 Chevy Spark with Manual Transmission
  If you were looking for the most economical way to tow your 2015 Chevy Spark I think I have your best option although it's not quite a flat towing setup. Since flat towing setups are pretty expensive (even on the cheap side) the best option when money is concerned is a tow dolly like the Roadmaster Tow Dolly # RM-2050-1. It's a one time cost up-front that while might seem high is still less expensive than the most inexpensive flat towing setup and you don't have to pay for anything to be...

• Will a 2018 Volkswagen GTI Make Contact with the Ramps on Tow Dolly RM-2050-1 While Driving
  The bump or dip in the road would have to be fairly severe for the ramps on tow dolly # RM-2050-1 to make contact with the bottom of your 2018 Volkswagen Golf. The ramps are not all that long and the dolly and vehicle will move up and down with the travel of the tow dolly suspension. If there is any contact it is unlikely that it would be forceful enough to damage anything on the vehicle. I understand though; it's a new vehicle and you want to be sure! I recommend taking a look at the...

• Recommended Tow Dolly for 2016 Kia Soul Behind Motorhome
  Your 2016 Kia Soul with Sportmatic automatic transmission can be towed on either of the two Roadmaster Tow Dollys we carry as long as you have the 16 inch wheels. The 17 or 18 inch wheels will not work. The factory 205/60-16 tires will work well on the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes # RM-2050-1 The tow dolly option comes wired but needs the connection like # PK12706 for a 7-way for most applications or # PK11604 if you have the less common 6-way.

• Towing 2016 Mini Cooper JCW Hatchback Behind Motorhome
  We've had this question before and the answer is that we don't have a base plate that will fit your JCW model 2016 Mini Cooper due to the intercooler location but we do have a way to tow the vehicle with a tow dolly like the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly with Disc Brakes part # DM9713045. The Kar Kaddy SS is the perfect all in one tow dolly. It has disc brakes for maximum stopping power/reliability, a folding tongue for easy storage, and a wheeled jack to maneuver the dolly around while...

• Recommended Parts to Flat Tow a 2017 Ford Edge Titanium
  Yes, disconnecting the battery with a Quick-Disconnect, like the Deka part # DW05312, will be the easy way to go when it comes to disconnecting the battery on your 2017 Ford Edge so it can be flat towed. Disconnecting the battery prevents it from draining while you are flat towing. Since the owner's manual states that the battery must be disconnected I strongly recommend following those instructions and not trying to get by it somehow. That is one of the down sides to flat towing with...

• How To Use Separate Magnetic Tow Lights on Tow Dolly with Brakes
  It sounds like you're trying to use two separate trailer connectors together, one for the tow lights like the Flint Hill Goods Magnetic Tow Lights part # FHG96ZR and one for the tow dolly. We don't carry this exact tow dolly so I can't be sure but it sounds like it has electric brakes but no lights and uses a 7-way. The tow dolly lights will then use a 4-way. In order to have both you'd need to combine the two, the tow dolly and tow lights into one trailer connector, a 7-way. I recommend...

  Though we do have what you will need to get a 2017 Mini Cooper S Convertible set up for flat towing, and I do have a whole set up listed below, you do still want to check with a Mini dealer as there are a few determining factors on if it can be flat towed or not. They will need the VIN, so if you can get that, it will be the quickest way to check. You may be able to just give them all the info they need, but the VIN is the most surefire way to check.

• Recommended Brake Controller for a Roadmaster Tow Dolly W/ Electric Brakes
  Hey Ron, your Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Flat Tow Brake System # RM-9400 is not going to work with the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes # RM-2050-1 so you'd need to use a different brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195. This brake controller will work with trailers up to 4 axles, is compatible with electric or electric-over-hydraulic trailer brakes, and has a quick-disconnect feature that lets you easily remove and store the controller...

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Towing Tow Dolly with 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan
  The hitch we offer that would work best for towing your 2019 Chevy Malibu on a tow dolly like the Roadmaster part # RM-2050-1 that you referenced is the etrailer.com hitch part # e98854 as it has the best towing capacities at 4,000 lbs, has great ground clearance and since only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper it looks the best as well. I attached a picture of what it looks like installed as well as an install video link. Then for trailer wiring the Curt T-Connector Vehicle...

The correct part is the Replacement Driver's-Side Stop/Turn/Tail Light # RM-300220-40, which works with the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes # RM-2050-1 and RM-2000-1(Discontinued). Also, for future reference in case you ever need to replace the other light, the correct part is the Replacement Passenger's-Side...

  Per the owner's manual for your 2015 Mirage, it cannot be flat-towed. You can, however use a tow dolly like the RoadMaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes, part # RM-2050-1. Using a tow dolly does eliminate the need for base plates on your mirage and also the need for a tow bar. You will need a brake controller like part # 90885. This is one of our most popular because it is easy to install and operate. Since the tow dolly comes with a 4-way connector you will need to replace it with...
